Another location of support for people with dementia and their carers
Alzheimer Portugal and the Municipality of Portimão have recently signed an agreement for the provision of premises for the headquarters of the Association’s local office (NÚCLEO DO ALGARVE.)
Alzheimer’s patients and their carers in the Algarve have, since 1 September, a location in Portimão to provide them with the help they need and already benefit from.
Edite Reis and Liliana Ferreira are the two voluntary coordinators who, over the last six years, have been developing this mission and have managed to open up the new local office, with the cooperation of the Associação Alzheimer Portugal and the Portimão City Council. Now with an additional team member, Margarida Ferreira - psychologist, the office aims to reach more families and expand the services provided.
